Abstract

The residential sector consumes the largest amount of total energy produced by diferent energy production resources. Therefore, an efective energy management and control system is required for residential buildings to utilize the energy resources in an efcient manner. The primary objective of energy management and control system is to improve the energy efciency and achieve the occupant’s preferred indoor environmental comfort. Many approaches have been proposed in the literature to efectively manage the energy systems in residential buildings. In this paper, a new approach of Artifcial Bee Colony with Knowledge Base (ABC-KB) is proposed for the management of power and occupant’s preferred environment inside the residential building. The complete energy efcient and user-friendly model has diferent components in which ABC-KB was used for the optimization purpose, whereas the status of diferent actuators was controlled using fuzzy controllers. The experimental results show that the developed system signifcantly enhances the energy efciency and occupant’s comfort inside the residential building as compared to some previously proposed approaches. The model has shown efciency in achieving high comfort index along with the minimized energy consumption.
